Saturday morning

To do next:

  • Take a deep breath and look at the (ugh!) car-buying to-do list
  • Eat breakfast/shower/dress
  • Decide on next actions on (ugh!) car-buying project  

;-)

Rice pudding

Well, I tackled the car to-do list and got my credit report.  Also did some (unrelated) emotional sorting out that I needed to do.
I have some exciting things happening in my life, which is great, but it's leaving me with winged critters in my stomach making it hard for me to concentrate and interfering with my appetite.  I had a snack but I know I need more food in my system.

So, revised plan:

  • Go to store for rice pudding & some other comfort food so I don't run out of steam
  • Shower
  • Go to bank to discuss (bleah) car loan

Btw, thanks for being there, everyone.  Knowing I can check in really helps me stay on track & it's good to not be alone.

Falcon

Yuck

Buying a car = yuck
applying for a loan = yuck
rice pudding = double yuck!

Keep up the good work

J.

Comfort food

Thanks, Journey!  I'll eat your rice pudding if you don't want it -- I find it digestible when my stomach is fluttery. 

Got to the bank in good time, but there was a long line and one lone assistant trying to help everyone.  Waited in line till closing time, and will have to go back.  Luckily my bank is open Sundays.

To do before I go out:
Lift weights
Go for walk

Falcon

Done

On my way out.  See you all tomorrow!

CI for Lark @ 8:00

Geesh, I need to get back into this. I've been in a funk, and while alot of thngs are getting done, the important ones aren't, and I'm starting to get anxious. I need to do some banking this morning, which means driving to town. I procrastinated on that yesterday, and didn't leave till the bank was closed (along with an couple of other "stops") and now I must make a second trip. My main work project is moving slowly, but it must be done for Monday, and I still have alot to do for my home insurance evaluation this week. Arrgh. Then there are some social committments I can't avoid tonight.
To do:
 proect for work
 banking, etc
 two or three half hour periods to get ready for insurance person

I'm very tired and so finding it hard. Also the emails following on from my trip abroad were a bit complicated and reminded me of the suffering I had seen and had decided to do something about.
